So, I'm soon to be jumping into unraid from FreeNAS. I have a plan and I wanted some feedback as to the feasibility of said plan.
What (will) I have
Gen1 Ryzen3
Appropriate motherboard (atx)
16GB DDR4 Memory (non ECC)
WD Black 250GB NVME drive
4x 3TB Seagate Ironwolf drives
LSI controller card
My Goal
So right now, this will be running the storage and 'stable' services on my network, with the intention of having my CCTV (Blue Iris, on Win10 VM) and plex. It'll also act as storage ONLY for the lab section of my network.
My Plan
OS, VM's and Containers running on NVME SSD
Storage on the HDD's
My current FreeNAS installation on an old HP Microserver (g7) will become my lab area, probably running Proxmox, using my old mismash of HDD's. It's becoming unreliable but for lab use and testing I'm not fussed.
What are your recommendations?
I'm also toying with having a disk drive installed on the server to digitise my DVD collection onto Plex as well. Possible?
